How to pipe HubSpot Data to CSV in PowerShell

The CData Cmdlets Module for HubSpot is a standard PowerShell module offering straightforward integration with HubSpot. Below, you will find examples of using our HubSpot Cmdlets with native PowerShell cmdlets.

Getting Started

---

Creating a Connection to Your HubSpot Data

HubSpot uses the OAuth authentication standard. You can use the embedded OAuthClientId, OAuthClientSecret, and CallbackURL or you can obtain your own by registering an app.

See the Getting Started chapter of the help documentation for a guide to using OAuth.

$conn = Connect-HubSpot 

Selecting Data

Follow the steps below to retrieve data from the Prospects table and pipe the result into to a CSV file:

Select-HubSpot -Connection $conn -Table Prospects | Select -Property * -ExcludeProperty Connection,Table,Columns | Export-Csv -Path c:\myProspectsData.csv -NoTypeInformation

You will notice that we piped the results from Select-HubSpot into a Select-Object cmdlet and excluded some properties before piping them into an Export-Csv cmdlet. We do this because the CData Cmdlets append Connection, Table, and Columns information onto each "row" in the result set, and we do not necessarily want that information in our CSV file.

Deleting Data

The following line deletes any records that match the criteria:

Select-HubSpot -Connection $conn -Table Prospects -Where "Region = ONTARIO" | Remove-HubSpot

Inserting and Updating Data

The cmdlets make data transformation easy as well as data cleansing. The following example loads data from a CSV file into HubSpot, checking first whether a record already exists and needs to be updated instead of inserted.

Import-Csv -Path C:\MyProspectsUpdates.csv | %{
  $record = Select-HubSpot -Connection $HubSpot -Table Prospects -Where ("Id = `'"+$_.Id+"`'")
  if($record){
    Update-HubSpot -Connection $hubspot -Table Prospects -Columns ("Slug","PageViews") -Values ($_.Slug, $_.PageViews) -Where ("Id = `'"+$_.Id+"`'")
  }else{
    Add-HubSpot -Connection $hubspot -Table Prospects -Columns ("Slug","PageViews") -Values ($_.Slug, $_.PageViews)
  }
}

As always, our goal is to simplify the way you connect to data. With cmdlets users can install a data module, set the connection properties, and start building. Download Cmdlets and start working with your data in PowerShell today!
